  • Abstract:
  • The paper approaches Anita Nair’s Ladies Coupe from a feminist point of view to foregrounding women's stereotyping in a male-dominated society regardless of age, religion, and place. It analyses various facets of oppression in the novel due to patriarchy. Ladies Coupe by Anita Nair narrates the story of six women’s oppression through the protagonist Akhila, a forty-five-year-old spinster, who serves as a string to weave the stories of the other five women, who encounter her in the lady’s compartment of the train to Kanyakumari. The paper deals with various aspects of stereotyping in the novel Ladies Coupe. Patriarchal stereotypes reinforce and justify patriarchy, the unequal social system that favors men over women due to their gender. The article shows how the six women suffer at the hands of men in society due to their gender. Every woman has a unique story to share with the rest of the women in the compartment.
